Definitions
- the present invention relates to optoelectronic devices assistance in piloting an aircraft usable in poor visibility at take-off and in the event of an approach interruption by go-around.
- Optoelectronic devices for assisting the piloting of an aircraft consist of collimators or head-up displays allowing present before the eyes of an aircraft, airplane or helicopter pilot, graphic and alphanumeric information projected on a semi-reflecting optic and superimposed on the view of the outside world.
- the view from outside world can be either direct or use a sensor in providing a video image presented in the collimator.
- pilot assistance optoelectronics directly depend on visual characteristics of the various symbols presented to the pilot both for the capacity for global monitoring of the situation only for the accuracy of maneuvers performed manually.
- collimators are used mainly for landing, taxiing and take off in poor visibility. They allow a reduction of minima visibility and / or increase operational security thanks to increased capacity to monitor the situation. They also bring increased precision of trajectory control in visual flight conditions.
- the present invention aims to improve performance a collimator used in the initial take-off climb phase or in the event interruption of approach by go-around, in order to increase the level of monitoring the situation in general and monitoring the trajectory in particular (road and slope), even in the event of an engine failure.
- an optoelectronic device for piloting assistance an aircraft with a navigation center determining, among other things, the longitudinal and lateral plates, and a collimator displaying a line of artificial horizon giving a reference of lateral attitude and slope null, and a fixed symbol consisting of an airplane model giving a longitudinal reference of the aircraft.
- This device is remarkable in that it includes display means on the collimator of two scales of slope for takeoff and go-around, symmetrically inclined according to the branches of an X placed on the artificial horizon line and crossing at a value of longitudinal attitude called safety to be held in case of breakdown engine.
- the two slope scales for takeoff and the go-around are graduated every 2.5 degrees and extend over 20 degrees of slope above the artificial horizon line.
- the optoelectronic device for assisting in control also includes display means, on the collimator, of a local horizon attached to the fixed symbol of the airplane model.
- the local horizon linked to the fixed symbol of the airplane model consists of two straight segments which are aligned and symmetrical about the center of the airplane model and which tilt to stay parallel to the artificial horizon line.
- the optoelectronic device for assisting in control also includes means for displaying, on the collimator, two indexes which identify the longitudinal safety base and which are integral and parallel to the artificial horizon line, arranged on each side of the fixed symbol of the airplane model on the longitudinal attitude of safety and intended to position themselves on the local horizon when the attitude longitudinal of the aircraft merges with the longitudinal attitude of security.
- the two indexes identifying the longitudinal attitude are spaced laterally the length of the two segments of right of the local horizon.
- Each slope scale 7 and 8 for takeoff and delivery of gas includes a mark every 2.5 degrees of slope between the attitude 0 degree (horizon) and + 20 degrees, in the form of two dashed dashes, one horizontal parallel to artificial horizon line 3 and the other oblique, following the slope line of the scale.
- the distance between the marks of the two slope scales 7 and 8 for takeoff and go-around assigned to the same level changes linearly decreasing to converge by lower values or higher towards the safety base to be held in the event of an engine failure (13 degrees in Figures 1 to 3).
- the convergence effect is reinforced by the oblique fins of the marks.
- the distance between the marks at +2.5 degrees of the two slope scales 7 and 8 for takeoff and delivery of gas corresponds to that separating the two indexes 12 and 13 from the third graphic symbol identifying the longitudinal safety attitude.
- Slope ladders 7 and 8 for takeoff and go-around in the event of an approach interruption facilitate, in the event of an engine failure, acquisition and maintenance of the safety base thanks to good perception of the speed of variation of the longitudinal attitude from the apparent speed of movement of their markers in relation to the model airplane 2.
- they give fine information on the longitudinal attitude by locating the relative position of the airplane model 2 relative to their benchmarks. They are fully compatible with flight procedures without engine failure and are presented at each takeoff or go-around after interruption of an approach.
- the local horizon made up of two half-lines 10 and 11 attached to the airplane model 2 and parallel to the artificial horizon line 3 allows the pilot of the aircraft to better control the heel when his special attention is paid to the vicinity of the aircraft model 2, far from the artificial horizon line 3, which is the case during takeoff or a go-around.
- the local horizon 10, 11 is centered and rotates according to the angle of deposit around the airplane model symbol 2 which is fixed in collimator axes. Associated with slope scales 7 and 8 for takeoff and go-around which are attached to the artificial horizon line 3 it allows with the mockup airplane 2 to estimate and control the angles of longitudinal attitude and gite.
- the two indexes 12 and 13 of the third graphic symbol identifying the longitudinal safety base at which the two ladders intersect take-off and go-around slopes 7 and 8 allow the pilot to see the relative position of the two half-lines 10 and 11 of the local horizon in relation to the longitudinal safety base.
- the pilot finds, grouped around the airplane model 2, all the elements to assess the situation and deduce the actions to maintain the aircraft in the desired flight envelope in the event of takeoff or go-around.
- This offers an elegant solution to solve the problem of transition and change of pilot reference (round trip) between the ground speed vector 4 which makes it possible to estimate the orientation of the trajectory of the aircraft and the airplane model 2 which makes it possible to know the attitude of the aircraft.
- This transition if it occurs naturally in take-off without engine failure, becomes much more difficult to manage without this new symbology, for example if an engine failure occurs during a go-around interrupting an ILS (Instrument Landing) approach System in Anglo-Saxon language).
- the plane is indeed at this time very close to the ground (less than 50 feet in all weather landing category lllB) and engine failure may induce (on a twin-engine for example) a fairly large swerve in heel and on the way, while the longitudinal attitude setting must ensure in the same time a slope therefore a positive vertical speed.
- the pilot In the event of an automatic go-around in the absence of a breakdown engine, the pilot must monitor the situation and check that the rotation of the longitudinal attitude and the ascent of the aircraft are well executed normally by autopilot. For this, he controls the plate longitudinal and deposit thanks to the new graphic symbols displayed.
- the inclination of the local horizon 10, 11 compared to the airplane model 2 shows him the work of the autopilot around the roll axis.
- the pilot uses the usual graphic and alphanumeric symbols. He must see the ground velocity vector 4 rise above the artificial horizon line 3, at plumb with the deposit route.
- the airplane model 2 which must go up to the indexes 12, 13 locating the attitude longitudinal safety, without exceeding them, with a suitable speed appreciated by the scrolling of the marks on the slope scales 7 and 8 for the takeoff and go-around.
- Figure 1 has been drawn for an operational situation corresponding to a take-off climb with all engines operational.
- the plane is flying at zero speed, wings flat, as shown by half-lines 10 and 11 of the local horizon which are perfectly aligned with the wings of the airplane model 2.
- Its longitudinal attitude is greater than the longitudinal safety attitude in the event of an engine failure identified by the index 12 and 13. It is here +15.5 degrees while the trim setpoint longitudinal safety is +13 degrees.
- the relative position of the vector ground speed 4 relative to the slope scales 7 and 8 for takeoff and go-around lets you see that the aircraft is climbing on a positive slope 5 degrees.
- the relative position of the "Ground speed vector" symbol 4 by compared to the artificial horizon line 3 and its heading scale allows us to see that the aircraft is on a route at 180.
- Figure 2 has been plotted for an operational situation corresponding to an increase in go-around with an engine failure.
- the plane still flies at zero as shown by the half-lines 10 and 11 of the local horizon which are aligned with the wings of the airplane model 2.
- its longitudinal attitude is now just equal to the attitude longitudinal safety because beyond, it could not maintain its speed of instructions.
- the relative position of the ground speed vector 4 with respect to slope scales 7 and 8 for takeoff and go-around allows you to see let the plane climb with a slight but positive slope of 2 degrees.
- the relative position of the ground speed vector 4 with respect to the horizon line artificial 3 and at its heading scale shows that the plane is still following but approximately a road at 180.
- Figure 3 has been plotted for an operational situation similar to that of FIG. 1, corresponding to a take-off climb with all engines operational and turn started on the right.
- the plane flies with a heel to the right as shown by the tilt to the left of two half-lines 10 and 11 of the local horizon relative to the wings of the airplane model 2 and more generally the inclination on the left of the line artificial horizon 3 as well as slope scales 7 and 8 for takeoff and the go-around and indexes 12 and 13 identifying the longitudinal attitude of security that are related to the artificial skyline 3.
- His trim longitudinal is greater than the longitudinal safety base. She is here, as in figure 1, by + 15.5 degrees while the longitudinal attitude safety is + 13 degrees.
- the relative position of the ground speed vector 4 with respect to the slope scales 7 and 8 for takeoff and delivery of gas shows that the aircraft is climbing on a positive slope of 5 degrees.
- the relative position of the ground speed vector 4 with respect to the horizon line artificial 3 and at its heading scale shows that the plane is following a route instantaneous in 192. In fact the fixity of the figure does not allow to show the displacement of the heading scale to the left on the horizon line artificial 3 consecutive to the right turn of the aircraft.
- Figure 4 illustrates the general architecture of installed equipment aboard an airplane to display to the pilot the graphic symbols Figures 1 to 3.
- the airplane the front part of which can be distinguished with the piloting, is equipped with a navigation system 20 and a baro-anemometric measurement with a baro-anemometric unit 21 and an incidence probe 22, connected by a computer 23 and a generator symbol 24 at a collimator 25.
- the navigation system 20 provides the usual indications including, in particular, the heading, the speed vector relative to the ground, the longitudinal attitude and the lodging.
- the collimator 25 comprises a transparent screen 250 which is placed in front of the pilot's eyes, superimposed on the landscape, and on which a projection device 251 displays the various symbols piloting alphanumeric and graphics including those shown in Figures 1 to 3.
- the projection device 251 is controlled by the generator symbol 24 which receives update commands from the computer 23 to programmed logic connected to the navigation system 20 and to the baro-anemometric measurement 21, 22.
